    People who live in Gaza do not have freedom of movement. They can't just leave, they need permission from Israel to do so.

      The Egyptian border has been open for decades (with intermittent closures, such as right now). They do not require permission from Israel to leave. I encourage you to read up about this on Wikipedia, and review the geography on Google Maps.

          At least you could read the source you cite.

          Facing mounting international calls to ease or lift their blockade in response to the Gaza flotilla raid, Egypt and Israel lessened the restrictions starting in June 2010. Israel announced that it will allow all strictly civilian goods into Gaza while preventing weapons and what it designates as "dual-use" items from entering Gaza.[100] Egypt partly opened the Rafah border crossing from Egypt to Gaza, primarily for people, but not for supplies, to go through.

          Additionally, any Gazan my leave by ship at any time.
